Naugatuck running back Brandon Andoh targets breakout season after injury recovery

Naugatuck junior running back Brandon Andoh enters the upcoming season with renewed health and specific personal benchmarks. After a freshman campaign featuring 1,003 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns, Andoh saw his sophomore production decline to 483 yards and eight touchdowns due to a broken foot and a torn toe ligament. The running back stated he is focusing on increased mental maturity and leadership to help lead the Greyhounds following their 4-6 finish last year. Coach Chris Anderson noted that Andoh remains one of the team's fastest players and a natural ballcarrier. Andoh, who now weighs 175 pounds, has set goals of 2,200 rushing yards and 27 touchdowns this season. He also spent the summer training to expand his role as a dual-threat option in the passing game.
